Think Pink - Card no 2

Hi everyone, just wanting to share a little card I made for the Think Pink Challenge over at Copic Oz.  For every card made and added to the challenge, $5.00 is donated to the http://mcgrathfoundation.gofundraise.com.au/page/copicaustralia
such a wonderful organisation which helps raise funds for Breast Cancer.

Copic Oz are now going to donate $1000 to the McGrath Foundation if they reach 100 Think PInk Cards.....which they are so close to.  So here is my next submission :)

Design Team Project - Butterfly Kisses

Hi everyone!

The design team so lovingly let me play with the very girlie and cute collection, Kaisercraft's Butterfly Kisses this month and I couldn't be happier!!  I love the bright and bold colours.  At first they can seem a bit in your face but as you start playing with them they are very easy to use. 

I had seen a similar layout in a Australian Scrapbook Creation Magazine by Maria Featon, so I decided to use it for inspiration.  I really like the different strips of patterned paper and the how the layout is layered with different types of papers from the collection.



For this layout, I used a beautiful photograph of my little Miss, which was taken last year.  I think the black and white photograph looks great with the colourful background and embellishments.



Its difficult to tell, but in this photograph, my little Miss is fascinated by a fabric flower, so I thought it fitting to add flowers as an embellishment.


I have finally started using distressing techniques in my layouts....at first I found it quite difficult to do, but now I'm loving how it all looks and how easy it is to fix any little mishaps!!


So if I have inspired you to use this beautiful collection, then please head over to


for all of your scrapbooking and papercrafting supplies!!



Thanks
Sandra :)
